COMMUNICATIONS. To the Friend* of onr Soldiers. Beaufort, S. C., July 30,1802. Wo are quite conscious of, and fully appre ciate, the fact that many person* throughout the loyal States are making great sacrifice* for the physical comfort, and spiritual welfare of our soldiers. Much has already been accomplished by the generous distribution of tracts, papers, and other religious publications; and the hallowed influence thus exerted for the religions culture of the soldiers are very great. Eternity alone will reveal their blessed results. Yet our experience and observation clearly demonstrates to us that, lu connection with our religious services in camp, Christian cor respondence from home is doing more for the morals, and spiritual advancement of our men than any other instrumentality employed. The soldier, whether officer or private, old or young, will read a letter, who would not read a tract, or a religious newspaper. First—Because it is addressed immediately to him. Second—Because it is written by one person ally interested in his welfare. Bren the least paper or tract enclosed to a soldier, with a request to read It, will incline him to read it, and re-read it, until its truths are indelibly impressed upon his heart. The letter, with its contents thus addressed to him, will be carefully folded, and placed in his pock et for fliture reference, so that when out on picket duty, or during his leisure moments, he will have something to read, and occupy his mind. The impression made by such letters Is like “bread cast upon the waters, to return alter many days.” We would say, theq, parents, write to your children—wives, write to your husbands—chil dren, write to your parents—write often, cheer fully, and encouragingly. Let your letters lie filled with words of cheer, and breathing the spirit of Christian sympathy and love. Kindly admonish your friends to shun all the evils in cident to camp life. Urge them to lay hold of the sure promises of the Gospel, which alone will purify, strengthen, and save the soul. In the name, and by the authority of the great Captain of our salvation, we say to pas tors and people, write messages of love to our soldiers. We do not solicit long and studied es says, but simple, home-like, cheerful, Christian letters. Christian young ladles, write to all your friends and acquaintances who have gone forth to battle for our country. Let no feelings of false delicacy In the matter, hinder you. And, in writing, seek to blend the endearments of home, and the occurrences of the neighbor hood, with the story of the cross. i uu w in uiu* strew xne mggea pathway or the defenders of our country with flowers of immortal bloom, and accomplish much good for the salvation of souls to the glory of God. Yours, In behalf of our common country, A. P. Phii.brook, Chaplain 8th Maine Vols. J. C. Emerson, Chaplain 7th Maine Vols. R. D. C. Rodkock, Chaplain 47th Reg. P. V. C. T.

Friend Hall :—You have undoubtedly be fore this heard of Saturday’s light at this place. The ball was opened by the rebels artillery, at three I*. M. and kept up till eleven, with but little intermission. The relic Is had a battery of 12 pounders on our left, stationed on Cedar Mountain, so as to commaud the whole Held from left to right. Our Cavalry had the left of the line; a very exposed position. Strange as it may appear we escaped without the loss of a single trooper. Late in the evening,Co. F, had one man wounded in the hand, as they were going on picket duty. The Maine Sixth Battery was in the advance, and done their duty nobly, and suffered not more than could be expected. I ain unable to learn their loss. The Maine 10th suffered severely, they were in the thickest of the fight, and fell like heroes, face to the foe. It is impossible to give names at present,as many that we reported lost yesterday, are found all right to-day. The Infantry fight commenced 6 1-2 P. M., and lasted two hours. It is said by men of judgment, to be the hard est small fight, of the war. The Infantry fight was on our right, it occupied a space scarcely larger than a musket range,trom300to 400 and of our men were left dead on the field. In the hardest part of the field, there was from twelve to fifteen dead on the square rod. The question will be asked who won the field Answer, neither party. We fell back about sixty rods and camped. their pickets occupied the field duriug the night. We now know that theycommenced a retreat on Sunday morning, but did not know it till Monday night. The rebels had three men to our one engaged in the fight. Officers and soldiers are asking why this was so, when we had from ten to twenty thousand men lay ing on their arms all day long, within a dis tance of three and five miles of the field, and not ordered forward till late in evening, just in season to save a defeat, but too late to win a victory. [Our correspondent closes his letter w ith some stringent criticisms which we do not think it w ell to publish at present. We have received no letter from him from Front Royal or Warrenton.—[Eds. Press. £3f“Gen. Hunter in a letter to I)r. Tyng, says, “none of the delusions by which slavery has sustained itself at the North, is more ab surd than the bugbear of a general migration of negroes to the North, as a necessary se quence of emancipation. So far is this from being the fact, that although it is well known that I give passes North to all negroes asking them, not more than a dozen have applied to me for passes since my arrival here, their local attachments being apparently much stronger than with the white race. My experience leads me to believe that the exact reverse of the received opinion on this subject would lorm the rule, and that nearly if not quite all the negroes of the North would migrate South whenever they shall beat liberty to do so without fear of the auction-block.” The President and Redpath.—The Washington correspondent of the Springfield Republican relates the following story:—Red path came to tell the President that Geflhird, President of Hayti, would send a white minis ter to this country, if Mr. Lincoln specially de sired it. “Hayti is so grateful,” says Redpath, “for her recognition at your hands, that he was authorized to say that if you desired it as a favor, a white ininister'shduld lie sent instead of a colored one. Of course Hayti prefers to send one of her own children, but she will be generous even to the prejudice against color.” Mr. Lincoln turned drolly in his chair, and re plied—“Well, you can tell Mr. Getirard that I shan't tear my shirt if he docs send a negro here.” COAL WOOD, CHEAP FOR CASH, DELIVERED TO ANY PART OF THE CITY.

At a legal meeting of the inhabitants of Brunswick, on the 11th Inst., over w hich Dr. Isaac Lincoln presided as Moderator, the fol- j lowing resolutions were unanimously adopted, to wit: Ifrhertas, W. 8. Lindsey, a member of the British Parliament, i« reported to have stated in Inn place iu that body, that he had lately received a letter from a “citizen of strong Union feelings in Brunswick, in the.Stale of Maine, expressing nis hope for British intervention in the contend now going ou,” There fore Resolved, That the citizens of this town will spare no pain* to dis rover and ascertain whether this dec laration thus made by a memLkjr of Parliament is a fabrication, or whether we really have existing among u« such a black-hearted hypocrite, traitor ami knave, as could thus seek to odd'the calamity oi a foreign war t© our present distresses. e Resolved, That we need something more than such a naked declaration to convince us that there is iu our midst such a compound of the villain and the fool, but if it should prove that there is, he it fur ther Resolved, That we will purge the fair tame of our town by consigning him to the deserved punishment of all traitors, whenever he shall be discovered. Resolved muimmous/if. That the citizens of this to wn abhor the idea of foreign interference iu the af fairs of the Republic: that we will always resist to the utmost ot our power, the intervention oi any mon arch or potentate whatever a?aiust our government, and that wo hold in utter dete ction the fend aud foot who would seek to bring such a thing about. Resolved, That Brunswick is no home lor traitors, and it any lurk here, pretending tobc“nien of strong Union feelings" while secretly sympathizing with the rebel* in arms ngaiust our government, they had bet ter remove before they are discovered. Voted, That a copy of the above resolves, signed bv I the Moderator and Clerk of the mooting, be sent to the Hon. F. H. Morse and Hon. C. F. Train, in Lon don. aud that they be published in the Portiaud Pres*, Boston Journal aud Brunswick Telegraph. Gen. Anderson’s Speech. It has been reported that the Press dealt un fairly by the recent speech of Gen Anderson before the Democratic convention in this city. To show wliat justice there is in such reports, we copy from the Boston Courier’s report of that speech, as we find it approvingly trans ferred to the columns of the Saco Democrat, both papers being friendly to the distinguished Democratic orator, who made the speech on the occasion referred to. From the Courier we copy as follows: Gen. S. J. Anderson being loudly called for, took the platform, Ac. lie denounced the Republicans as surpassing in arrogance and in solence any party t hat ever put its loot upon a down trodden nation. They denounced us, he said, as traitors. They denounced the par ty which met a year ago in Winthrop Hall, as traitors. The Democratic party ot Maine will never lie muzzled. They will express their opinions as to the course of the administra tion. which in their opinion, has proved false to the Constitution, which has taken away the dearest rights of American citizens, suspended the writ of habeas corpus, entered houses and buildings, and seized papers, and taken ]>ersons without any color Of law, in repeated violation of the Constitution, from the time they were installed at Washington till the present day. Such an administration deserves to he de nounced by the Democracy of the Stale of Maine. And, gentlemen, no order of Secreta ry Stanton will shut my mouth from so de nouncing such an administration. I say, gen tlemen, that the administration has been false to its oath of office, false to the Constitution and the laws. I say that this whole war is on to the administration, and the men that placed it in power; that it arose from them; that they brought on the war by their unconstitu tional measures. They brought the war upon us by the platforn upon which they selected their men, which refused to a certain portion of the country, rights which belonged to it.— They have carried on that war against the laws, and against the rights of this couutry. Tlie leaders have been steeped in fraud and corruption, from the time they were placed in ollice, until the present day; w'lien some of their officers have become too notoriously cor rupt— they have transported them from one office to another, and the President, in his good hearted imbecility, stands up, and says, "gen tlemen, I take it ;U1 oil myself.” The Presi dent shows that his weakness is only equalled by his good nature. That may he treason, if so make the most of it. It is unnecessary for us to say more. The speech calls for no special comment at our hands. Without going into the question whether it was, or was not, treasonable in ten dency, wo will say that it was an insult to the people of Maine. It attributes the war to the refusal to recognize the claims put forth by the convention that nominated John C. Breckin ridge—the refusal of the North to force slav cry upon the free territories against the w ill of the people inhabiting those territories. The speech of Anderson was the speech, and the only speecli before the Convention. It is to be regarded as the key note; as giving tone and direction to the whole movement. It was a speech that Jeff. Davis might consistently cheer; a speech iliat would ensure to its au thor a free adinissiou within the rebel lines.— It was a speech that the Argus has not pub lished; dare notjntblish. The courage of that paper is not adequate to offering so great an insult to the bulk of its readers. We are anx ious to see with what unanimity certain Union Democrats will keep step to such music. [Correspondence of the Press,] Letter from W ashington. Washington, I). C., Aug. 18th 1862. Editor* of the Vress:—Yesterday was rath er an exciting day in Washington, especially so for Sabbath. Ill the forenoon we were aroused by the huzzas of the people w hich greeted the arrival of Col. Corcoran at WilUard’s, Col. Wilcox, Lieut Col. Bowman and Maj. Yodges, ex changed prisoners, arrived at the same time. In tlic morning several Regiments from Penn, passed through the city on their w ay to the camp of instruction, on the other side of the Potomac. They were all thoroughly armed and equipped and were stalwert looking men. It is enough to kindle a glow of patriotism in the heart of any loyal man, to see their noble regiments, as they march forth to battle for our glorious Union and country. Men now begin to feel perfectly confident that this gi gantic and ungodly rebellion is soon to lie sup pressed. The mighty hosts that are now gath ering under the “old flag- from every section of the loyal North, will soon carry terror and dismay to the hearts of traitors everywhere. Rebellion has seen its brightest days. But I must assure you, that we of the old Pine Tree State, could not help blushing with shame when we read the sjieeches aud resolutions of the Dana Convention at Portland. The mat ter is a common topic of conversation among men of ail parties, and from all sections of the country. They wonder how a State that has done so nobly in this great crisis,can have such exhibitions of disloyalty within her borders. But let treason rear its snaky head, in disloyal Conventions of Maine and other States. It possesses no power whatever to arrest or even impede the majestic march of the Union army. This wicked rebellion will certain be suppress ed. This noble Union with all its blessings,will be preserved in all its integrity, though all the powers of treason and foreign jealousies shall conpire to overthrow; let the names of those who are luke warm, or those who are openly disloval lie inserilicd imrin the same scroll of infamy with the traitors of by-gone days. Let them lie marked nnd forever remembered, for at some future day they w ill seek to rid them selves of the stigma that will cling to tlieir names. And let those, too, who arc continually de nouncing our noble President and his Cabinet, who are continually finding fault with our Gen erals in the field, because they cannot control the Government to secure their sole and only purpose of the overthrow of slavery, men so factious and bigoted that they care less about the integrity of the Union than they do about an Impracticable emancipation of the slaves. Let such men be made to feel that their influ ence, so far as it goes, is only weakening, in stead of strengthening to the Government;— that its only tendency is to discourage enlist ments, by destroying the confidence of the people in the administration, and our noble Generals in the field. At a time, too, when all true patriots should forget sheir petty divi sions, and stand shoulder to shoulder in the great battle for our national existence. -What hut the conservative course of the President has given us a united North, and has prevent ed tlie entire strength of the border States from being arrayed against the Government In the afternoon of yesterday the 33d Mass achusetts, Col. Maggi, came down Pennsylva nia Avenue, anil halted in front ol Willard's Hotel, and in response to loud culls from the Regiment Col. Corcoran appeared upon the balcony. llis emaciated and pallid coun tenance sliows unmistakably the effects of thir teen months imprisonment, ne told them that he had not heard sueli cheers Iroin the hearts ol men for the last thirteen months, and that nowhere could such cheers arise but from the hearts of loyal men, battling for the glo rious old Cuion. He thanked God that he was here once more, aide to take up his sword or gun, and to strike a blow against this wick- j ed rebellion. He was not tired of battling in this great struggle. If drafting must lie resort ed to, lie hoped it would he the means of tak ing the fault-finders, who stay behind and crit icise the asiny; he wanted to see this class of men put in (lie front rank. He did not think they would be so much disposed to find fault, after a few engagements. Col. Corcoran’s speech was warmly applauded throughout. Col. Maggi responded in a few very neat and appropriate remarks. He said It was good to see men cheering, “but,” (pointing to his boys) “it is men w ith guns we want. We have come," said he, “to defend that old Hag that was left us by Washington, and come weal or woe, we have all resolved to stand by it, and protect it against all assailants.” The noble men lie had with him had come to tight, and he knew very well that they would fight.— Cheer after cheer went up as the Colonel re turned to the front of his regiment, and form ed tile line of march for the “sacred soil” of Virginia. And to the stirring strains of “marching along" tills noble body of men soon crowded the long bridge. W. Battle of Baton Rouge—Wei tzel’s Re port. Lieut. G. Weitzel of the Uuited States En gineers, Chief Engineer of the Department of the Gulf, arrived at New Orleans on Wednes day, 6th instant, and gives the following offi cial report to Gen. Butler of the Baton Kouge affair: REPORT OF LIEUT. WEITZEL. Headquarters, Baton Kouge, I Aug. 7th, 1862. General: I have the liuuor to acknowledge the receipt of your favor of yesterday. Your troops at this place have won a glori ous victory. I do not consider that there is the least danger of an attack for the present, because one of the several recounoitering par ties sent out this morning, and which has re turned, reports live abandoned caissons on the Greenweli Springs road. We have sent out to bring them in. This indicates a hasty retreat on the part of the enemy. Our forces could not pursue. One-half of the men who left the hospitals to fight, could not march a mile.— Tile conduct of these men was magnificently glorious. The attack was undoubtedly made upon representations of rebels within our lines, that our troops were nearly all sick and demoralized, and Gen. Breckeuridge undoubt edly expected, in conjunction with the ram Arkansas, to make a successful dash. It was a complete failure. The ram is blown up.— Their troops were repulsed. Gen. Williams disposed his forces ns follows, viz: The 4th Wisconsin ou the extreme left, on the right bank of Bayou Gross, with two pieces or Manning's Battery in the Arsenal grounds on the left hank of Bayou Gross, to sweep the grounds on the left olfthe Wiscon sin 4th. The Pth Connecticut was posted on the right of the 4th Wisconsin, with two pieces in rear of centre and two pieces in rear of tlie right. All these pieces wi re of Manning’s Battery, and were posted on either side of the knoll in the Government cemetary. Next came the Fourteenth Maine, posted in rear of the Bayou Sara, aud to the left of Gleenwell Serines road. Next came the Twenty-first Indiana, posted in the woods in rear of Magnolia Cemetery, with four pieees of Everett's battery, (under the command of Lieut. Carruth,) on their left on the Greenwell Springs road. The Indiana battery of two pieces came tip to the support of these pieces after the battle commenced.— Next came the Sixth Michigan, posted across tlie country road on right of the Magnolia Cemetery and across tlie Clay Cut road, their left supporting two pieces of Everett's battery posted on the road on the right of the Magno lia Cemetery. The Seventh Vermont was posted in the rear of the Twenty-first Indiana and Sixtii Michigan, on the right of the Catholic Ceme tery. Tilt: Thirtieth Massachusetts came next, forming tlie right, and posted about one-half mile in rear of the State House, supporting Kims’ battery. This disposition of the forces was made witii the supposition that the enemy would attack our left ilank, under the cover of tlie ram Ar kansas. The right Hank depended upon gun boat support. The only fault of disposition— perhn]is rendered unavoidable by tlie forma tions of the ground—was that the camps of tlie Fourteenth Maine ami Twenty-first Indi ana were pitched in frout of their position, in line of battle, ami consequently came into the possession of the enemy for a short time. The enemy formed line of battle on the open grounds, bordering on tlie Greenwell. Springs road, and attempted to draw our forces out.— Failing in this, they advanced rapidly on the ground between the Clinton and Clay Cut roads. The whole brunt of the attack, conse quently.fell upon the Fourteenth Maine. Twen ty-first Indiana, and Sixth Michigan. As soon as it liecame apparent that this was the real point of attack. Gen. Williams ordered tip the Ninth Connecticut, Fourth Wisconsin, ami one section of Manning's battery, to support tlie left, and the Thirtieth Massachusetts and two sections of Kims’ battery to support the right. You w ill, therefore, see that the disposition (with tlie slight exception hinted at,) and the maiHruvcring were faultless. The conduct of our troops was excellent.— Tlie twenty-first Indiana particularly distin guished Itself. I saw n number of tile dead of the enemy to-day in front of the ground they occupied: but not content witii the check they gave tlie enemy, this regiment pursued him quite a distance, strewing the ground with his dead. The brave Gen. Williams fell in front of tlie Sixth Michigan, toward the end of the conflict, w hile giving his men a noble example of reck less iiinl (hiring bravery. He was killed by a rifle ball in the chest. The enemy’s force consisted of two Louisi ana Kegiment* (tlie Fourth and Thirtieth), two Mississippi, the Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh and Eighth Kentucky, two Tennessee, one Alabama regiment, and thirteen guns and a large guerilla force. Their attacking force numliered fully pointments are made; and the several county Clerks shall record all such appointments therein, with the date thereof, in books to be kept by them for that purpose. The Clerk of the di-trict in which any Mas ter in Chancery shall be appointed as aforesaid, shall semi a commission therefor, under the seal of this Court, to the person so appointed.

Leonard Swett, of Il linois, formerly of this city, is stopping at the Preble House. Those who have read Mr. Swett's speech at the recent rally in Wash ington will at once recognize in him a true patriot.

Butler, assessing certain hanking and other linns in New Orleans, who were sulwcri bers to a rebellion fund, in the sum of 25 per cent, of the amounts they sul>scribed to that fund, for ttie support of the poor. He also as sesses certain cotton brokers, “who published a card advising planters not to send their pro duce to New Orleans, in order to induce for eign intervention in behalf ol the rebellion,” for the same purpose. These brokers he taxes from $100 to $500 each, “to relieve the starv ing |K)or of New Orleans.” We are always rejoiced to see eviden ces of improved life. For this reason we were glad to Hud our venerable friend of the Adver tiser, after he had denounced and annihilated the order of the Sons of Temperance, and is sued a ‘•hull” to hedge up the way through which any member of that secret order could rise even to the moderate height of a Caucus j delegate, coming out in his paper in favor of putting in nomination for a responsible, office a gentleman who stands at the head ofthat re spectable organization, and bas attained the highest round of its ladder of fa me. Bro. Case is surely on the memiing hand. CastAI.TY.—Mr. Benjamin Kichmoml^gcd (17 years, a member of the society of Friends, and a resident of Green, was instantly killed at 10 o’clock A. M., August 19th, by being thrown from his wagon near the railroad crossing at the foot of Jay mil. ne was on the road between North Jay and Jay Bridge; with him in the wagon was a young lady who escaped uninjured. On approaching the cioss ing the down passenger train come in sight round a curve. Mr. Richmond stopped his horse near the track as the train passed his horse turned suddenly round, cramping the wheel, throwing him out, and killing him in stantly. Com. Official Honors to the Maine 12th.— Gen. Butler, by General Order, No. 50, pub lishes the following endorsement of the War Department for the gallant services of Lieut Col. Kimball and the Maine 12th, at Manchac Pass. The Secretary of War writes: The news of the brilliant achievement of Lieut. Col. Kimball, of the Pith Maine Volunteers, and the brave men under his command, at Manchac Pass, was very gratifying to the Department; and it entirely approves your ac tion in allowing the regiment to retain the colors, which they had so gallantly taken from the enemy.” The colors taken—a secession flag—has been sent to this city and are now deposited in the care of Gen. Shepley's father, J udge Ether Shepiey. When the kind old lady suggested to her minister, that if he made Ids tea all molas ses it wouldn’t be too good for him, she be trayed real goodness of heart, though we can't say that we should commend her taste. So, too. when our ladv friends send into the canin. for an evening lunch for the soldiers, stacks of cheese, boxes of raisons, bushels of currants, etc., we can manifest the most profound re spect for the kiudly sympathy which such acts betoken, but for the judgment that would gorge a soldier’s stomach with indigestible.*, and make him really sick to gratify his appetite, we cannot say much. There is much mistak j eu kindness in the world, and in no way does it more unmistakably reveal itself than in try mg to interrupt those regular habits of diet to which the soldier must adapt himself, as an in dispensable condition precedent of good health, and of preparation to endure hardship. Exc lusion ok the Sons ok Temperance. —The “Sons” and “Daughters” of Temper ance, of this city, made a pic-nic excursion yesterday, over the Y. Jl: C. Railroad, to the Grove near Buxton Center, tilling completely about half-a-dozen ears. The day, though I hot, was a very tine one, and everything pass j ed off pleasantly. Dancing, bow ling, swing ing and promenading filled up tho largest por I tion of the day. The Portland Band was in attendance. Before the arrival of the 2d train by which the speakers for the occasion were expected, the company had assembled aromtd the speakers stand, and were addressed at length by Dr. Dumb, of this city. After the I arrival of the 3 o'clock train, a meeting was I organized by calling S. L. Carleton, to the chair. Mr. Carleton took occasion, ‘while the i Canadian orator was getting rested’to introduce Mr. John E. Rich, who addressed the company iu his usual vigorous style. He said he was “a small piece of community, introduced sim- I ply to till up a gap.” At thcclore of Mr. ltich's remarks, Mr. Cahswki.l, of Canada West, was introduced, and for three-fourths of an hour he held the large company perfectly spell-band by bis forcible appeals and his in imitable anecdotes, illustration* and persona tions. Mr. C. is laboring in the Temperance cause, au.i has the “gifts" of one calculated to arrest attention and to do much good. The cars left for home at 5 o'clock, and arrived at six without the slightest accident. 1 Oettixo Kasieh.—Silver is getting plen- tier every day.

MATTERS ABOUT TOWN. ttW“ We are indebted to S. P. Coe, Esq., fur files of late New Orleans papers. £S“Two deserters front the 10th regiment were handed over yesterday by Marshal Huse to their officers in camp. £3f=TIon. L. D. M. Sweat, of this city, was nominated by the Democracy at Biddeford yesterday for Representative to Congress from tlie First District. His platform is undoubt edly the same as that laid down by the “Knights” in conclave assembled last week. A Model Regiment.—We learn from Dep uty Marshal Heald, that since the commence ment of recruiting for the 17th Regiment of Maine Volunteers, not one of the men belong ing to that regiment lias yet been carried to the lock-up. Personal.—We find upon the Register of the United States Hotel, the names of Lieut. Col. Chandler, of the Oth Maine Regiment, and General O. O. Howard. Also W. Buck, Assistant Surgeon Oth Maine. At the Preble House, Hon. Leonard Swett, from Illinois, formerly of this State. £y"We learn that the 17th Maine Regi ment, now at Camp King, will take its depart ure from this place this morning at six o’clock, striking tents at four o’clock. The hearty good wishes of the people of Portland, and of Maine, accompany them, and we believe, as was expressed by one of its members yester day, that they are going down to “feel” for Jeff. Davis. Accident.—On Tuesday afternoon last, the freight train from Danville Junction for Wat erville,ran off the track when about five miles this side of Winthrop, smashing four or five freight cars and the engine badly. The pas senger train from this place was delayed in consequence of the obstruction about six hours. One man, a fireman, received slight injuries. sar-Thc Eastern Express Company, having established a branch station at Cainp King for the accommodation of the regiments now quartered there, are doing a smart business. It is really pleasing to notice our generous vol unteers as they step up to friend Winslow’s office, with cash in their hands and filial duty in their hearts, requesting that this might be sent to a mother, or that to a wife, merely re serving a inoity for themselves. These things speak for the moral force of the two regiments. PRRKEVTiTIDV _A t a intMttinrv nf tlm IL.rt land Turnvcrein last evening, there was a pre sentation of a sword and belt to their Inte speaker, Thomas H. Tallxit, now Lieut. Col. of the Maine 18th. The presentation speech was made by the presentspeuker.Wm.O.Fox, Esq., and after a response from Lieut. Colonel Talbot, in which he spoke freely of his pleas ant connection with the Turnverein and Uie Turners, addresses were made by Messrs. Franklin Fox, John Lynch, Stephen R. Thurs ton and Ur. Wm. C. Robinson. The recipient of the sword was assured of the heartiest wish es of his fellow Turners for his success in Bis new service, and of their confidence that he would earn aud deserve it The meeting closed with three cheers for their late speaker. Young Men's War Meeting. A meeting having been called last evening by the Portland Zouaves, to take into consid eration the expediency of volunteering in the service of the Union, a large and enthusiastic body of our young men met at Brown’s Hall. F. It Harris, Esq., after calling the meeting to order, proceeded to state the purpose for which the meeting was convened, namely, to ascertain the number who were willing to agree to the propositions, as hereinafter stated. 1st, that a Zouave uniform, of a pattern simi lar to that worn by companies in New York and Boston be furnished them who might volunteer, and that a bounty of twenty dollars be paid them by the city. Mr. Harris then read the following, which bears its own sig nifications The undersigned, merchants of Portland, feeling the necessity for an immediate response to the call for more soldiers, hereby guaran tee to those young men in our employ, who shall volunteer at once, the same situations on their return that they now occupy.

Capture of Clarksville by Rebels. Gen. Corcoran in Baltimore. From Central Amcriea. Restoration of Property to tlie Con suls at A’evv Orleans. Scraps from Southern Papers. Guerilla Depredations. Burning of Federal Steamers. War Facta and Rumors. Kansas Citv, August 20. The federal loss in the engagement at Low Jack, ou Friday last, is understood to have been 150 in killed, wounded and missing. The balance of the force escaped to Lexington. A section of artillery was lost in the fight and that was taken and retaken four different times, and was finally spiked and abondoneJ by tlie federals. In the fight at Independence on the 11th, Gen. Hughes, who commanded a rebel regiment at Cartilage and a brigade at Wilson’s Creek, was killed, and tlie notorious and brutal Cols. Boyd and Thompson were wounded, the former fatally. Locisvili.e. Ky.. August 20. The rumored capture of Gen. Nelson by the reliels near Gallatin on Monday, is utterly false. A tolerably well authenticated report says that Col. Garrard with 6 or 7 hundred men attacked Scott’s Louisiana battery yesterday at Laurel Bridge near Lindon. After quite a severe fight he defeated them, splitting the rcliel regiments in two parts, which skedad dled in different directions. There are no particulars of the losses on either side. The steamers Skylark and Sallie were burn ed by guerillas on the night oftlie ISth at tlie mouth of Duck Creek, fifty miles above Fort Henry. The Skylark was' heavily loaded with Government stores. She got aground and ail officer unloaded a portion of her stores, when he was attacked by thirty guerillas. The crew being unarmed were compelled to sur render. The guerillas after removing tlie fur niture and silver ware, set fire to both boats; tlie crews were released on parole. There was a sliirlit skirmish on the Kith. thirteen miles from Memphis, w ith u part of Jeff. Thompson’s cavalry. Tile rebels were routed, having one killed and two wounded. A dispatch from Smithland, dated the Hull, says that a rebel force, tjOO strong, have taken Clarksville, and are advancing on Fort Henry. A dispatch from Fort Donelson coutlnus the capture of Clarksville, and says the rebels are moving on that work. There are only 150 ef ficient men there. Reinforcements have been asked for. The Grenada Appeal of the 17th, publishes Stonewall Jackson's official report of the liat tl^of Cedar Mountain. He claims a brilliant victory. Col. Corcoran's Speech at Baltimore. Bai.ti.moke, August 20. Gen. Corcoran received the citizens at the Eutaw House this evening, which was thronged from live to seven o’clock with an immense concourse anxious to see the martyr patriot and welcome him to the city. A large num ber of Irish citizens also called, to whom he made personal appeals to arouse their coun trymen of Baltimore to rally to the standard of the Union. He consented to address the people to-night at Monument Square, and the front of the Court House was beautifully dec orated.and illuminated for the occasion. Mayor Chapman presided, and introduced the General, who was received by the immense concourse with repeated cheers. Gen. Corcoran re turned thanks for the enthusiasm of his recep tion, and attributed it rather to the glorious cause in which he was imlentilied rather than to any personal merit. He then proceeded to give an account of his imprisonment, and de tailed a number of incidents of outrage at Richmond, Charleston, Columbia and Sauls bury. He described the prison at Saulshury where there were 300 Union prisoners, among w hom lie had found a number of Irishmen, who had refused to tight under any other flag than that which they hail sworn allegiance to on their arrival in this country, and their treatment was more brutal than that of the military prisoners, and among them were old grey-headed men, liowed down with suffering aud sorrow, hut firm in their allegiance. The deaths among them averaged two a day for the last six weeks. He appealed to all who loved the old (lag and hated tyranny to rally with him to the succor and reiief of these suf fering martyrs. He gave a graphic decription of the condition of Richmoud under the rule of the arch fiend and tyrant Jeff Davis, and declared that lilierty no longer existed there, and would never lie vouchsafed the people until the flag was restored. The streets pre sented a most deserted and sorrowful condi tion. No able-bodied man dared to walk on the streets unless provided with a military pass, and all that was to lie seen on its thor oughfares was jailed and ragged soldiers, and women aud children dressed in mourning. If any of his hearers sympathized with the re bellion, it was only necessary for them to see what he had seen to drive all such feelings from their hearts. No such tyranny and ojw pression existed on the face of the earth as the despotism of the Southern Confederacy. He concluded with a strong appeal to his countrymen of Baltimore, who he could not believe were disloyal to the country that gave them freedom, liberty and citizenship, to rally to the support of the Government in crushing the rebellion. From Washington. Washington, August 20. Hon. Reverdy Johnson, of Maryland, has made his report to the government upon the points in the administration of affairs in New Orleans. He not long since went thither to investigate, and the President has approved his conclusion}. It is understood that he re commends the return to the Consul of the Netherlands the $SU0,000 seized by Gen. But ler, and that the $716,000 be returned to the French Consul; also that a large amount of sugar and other merchandize be relinquished to the Greek, British, and other foreign mer chants domiciled in New Orleans, as accord ing to Mr. Johnson, these seizures by General Butler cannot be justified by civil or military law. S. J Tilden. and Henry V. Poor, of N. V., Win. I). Griswold, of Indiana, Rob't W. Lath am, of 1). C., and O. M. Moseneroft, of Cal., have been appointed Commissioners of the Pacific railroad. Letterfthave lieen received from Rev. H. H. Garland of New York, and colored men of in fluence at tile North, warmly seconding the plan of President Lincoln for the colonization of free negroes in Central America. Another military prison has been prepared. It is a flour warehouse in Georgetown, capa ble of accommodating 500 or 600. About 100 are at present confined there. Eighty returned prisoners of all grades, from Southern prisons, arrived here to-day. Bradford Rixford, of Wisconsin, lias been appointed special agent for the detection of frauds in the Pension Office. Various Matters. New Yoiik, Aug. 20. There will be no steamer for California to morrow. The loss of the Golden Gate will probably delay the arrival of the Champion. Should she arrive to-night, however, she will probably leave on Friday; if not, the North Star will sail on Saturday. A paragraph in the Panama Star states that the trench blockade of the Mexican ports is understood to lie only to prevent arms and ammunition iroin being landed, and will not interfere with the legitimate trade. The steamer Lima was totally lost on the lltli of July, 55 miles South of Cobiga, but the mails and passengers were saved and taken to Cobiga by the ship Moonlight. PlTTSIU BG, August 20. Cassius M. Clay arrived this evening and was serenaded at the Monongahela House. He made a long s|ieech to a large audience. His remarks were principally denunciatory of England. Tbenton, August 20. Over ten thousand men arc yet needed to fill the first quota of this State. From Richmond Papers. Foktkess Monboe, August 20. The Hichmond Examiner, of Aug. 10, says: We have no news of interest from the enemy on the South side. Tlie Petersburg Express, whose columns for a time teemed with the very latest from City Point and innumerable other points, now comes to us with the sad admission, “that we could learn nothing of the enemy's movements on James River yesterday. Where is the re liable free negro What has become of the man with the strong eye-glass who used to watch tlie Yankees so closely from tlie highest points in Prince George? Have both these invaluable reporters gone the way of our cav alry, who, since the taste they obtained of the enemy’s quality, have been content to snuff the Yankees from afar?” The following is also from the Examiner of tlie 16th:—Two hundred wounded Yankees Jell into our hands at Cedar Creek, and were conveyed to Charlotteville. The majority of them are said to lie too seriously wounded to warrant much expectation of recovery. There are among them a dozen or more commissioned officers. A colonel has had a leg and an arm amputated. Tlie same paper, in speaking of the latest foreign news, claims the strongest sympathies of France anil Englaud. Gen. Buell is an nounced to have hung five respectable citizens of tlie South in retaliation for the death of General McCook. This is declared a brutal proceeding. Fiendish acts are declared to have been committed on the people and prop erty happening to lie in the locality of tlie at tack on Gen. McCook. The Examiner says, Gen. Buell being known as one of the most lenient of the Yankee Generals, the fact proves that these acts of arson and hanging emanate from headquarters.” The same paper alleges that outrages have been committed upon widows and orphans, and upon tlie privacy and feelings of women, and that a system of wholesale plunder and destruction is in operation. It says—“Some thing must lie done to put an end to this inso lence, these grievous and insulting outrages. We have the subjects upon which to indict terrible retribution. The public mind is con vinced that unless full and fierce retaliation is inflicted, this system of outrage and murder will continue to go on. How can we hold demons in awe unless we treat them as demons?” Speaking of the election in North Carolina, the Examiner claims the election of Vance over Johnson by from 30,000 to 40,000 majority. It says no important principles re specting the settlement of the present war have been decided: that the platform of prin ciples of both parties are identical. Railroad Accident. Cincinnati, August 20. A freight train on the Covington and Lex ington railroad, which left Covington at 10 o'clock last night, after passing Garnett's Sta tion, ran over obstructions pi acini on the track and was precipated down a steep em bankment. The engineer and fireman, were instantly killed. The locomotive and eleven I cars were completely wrecked. It is suppos ed that the design of throwing the train off the track originated with secessionists. It was understood that a number of trooj>s would pass over the road last night.
